New Website. Clickbank help needed.

Just sent a pm

This is a nice question.

ReachOneMedia- You should also share your views in public if appropriate. That would help all others.

In my opinion,

1. I'd recommend you post those articles to EzineArticles. Also avoid duplicate content by posting them to your blog or website later on.

2. This is very important, just understand this technical thing to have a clear concept in your mind. Search Engine bot visits your website only when you post a new content. And when it visits, it checks how many backlinks have been added to your website from other websites. Accordingly it updates the ranking for the Anchored Keyword in those backlinks. Now suppose you have been posting articles to EA (EzineArticles) for the whole month and you didn't update your website with even a single post. No matter how many articles you submitted to EA, it won't make any difference. Because, Search Engine bot hasn't visited your website yet, and so hasn't checked how many backlinks have been added to your website.

So in order to have that bot visit your website, you constantly need to update your website and ping it. I hope this doesn't sound complicated. I think going through this twice would clear the concept. Anyways, in order to answer your question, you should continuously update your website with fresh and unique contents. Thrice a week would be good in the beginning.

3. Most of the single product review websites are specifically made for clickbank products. Just search in Google for any clickbank product name along with a word "review"

4. If you are putting your affiliate link at the end of your article and wish to make money, you should always go for reviewing the product. Because if you only describe the product, it will be just an information, a reader will move on for more information. Instead, a comprehensive review will suffice the product information and a reader will go to buy it.

Hope this will help.

1. If I have some really good articles for certain keywords with medium to high competition, should they go on ezine, or my website?

Spin your article, put the original on your website and submit the rest. Make sure the one you submit to Ezines is good though, theyre finnicky.

2. How much content should I have on my website along with me promoting my clickbank product?

This depends on the traffic source youre using. For an example if this was a PPC site you wouldnt need as much content as you would if you were trying to get SEO traffic. If youre trying to rank, you would have a landing page (review, presell, etc) and some articles pertaining to your niche. Keep in mind, your goal is to sell visitors a product, not overload them with information that delays the selling process.

3. Could someone give me an example of one of their sites that are specifically made for clickbank?

Negative, I like to keep my sites/kws to myself. Not saying youre going to steal them or anything, but would YOU be willing to risk your bread and butter?

I'm not exactly sure how I should sell it (Should I do a review, or just describe it?...or kinda both?)

For certain markets review styles work better, for others a blog with a story would work better. Try both, see what converts better.

I'm sorry to anyone who is getting annoyed with my already constant questions. One day I'll hopefully stop with the silly questions.

No questions are silly, ok nvm, some people can ask questions that are questionable, but these are reasonable ;p.
(Also, is 7-15 articles a week going to do that much good for a website?)

I would take those 7-15 articles and spin them like mad. You can squeeze a ton of mileage out of those seed articles.

Hope that helps!

1. - Imo you should always post your article to your site first .Then submit the same one to Ezine articles. This ensures the master article is still on your site, and perhaps when the Ezine articles article gets knocked down their internal rankings, and knocked down google, your own site will stil display, and in-fact grow in ranking which the Ezine shrinks.

Always try and build your own resource rather than having to rely on Ezine articles!

Keep your articles simple, either review or "selling" is ok, but if "selling" just keep it really simple - don't get too technical, just list some of the benefits and keep it flowing well and easy to read. Same with a review anyway - short simple, and easy to read with very clear BENEFITS for the reader - you should, imo, be doing more of a "pre-sell" than a solid sales pitch - this is the vendor's job.

With this expiriment until you find which style of articles work best for you and the products youre promoting and then do more of that style.

7-15 articles is good, especially for a fresh site with nothing on it. Build it bigger quick, then after a while you can slow down a little and concentrate a little more on building backlinks and getting your site ranked than just churning out articles.

On your own website first, and wait until indexed there before submitting a copy to EZA. (Absolutely no need to change it in any way for EZA). Very fully explained in this thread.

Subject to personal taste/preference/testing results and all sorts of other things. Personally, I have a great deal of content (though a lot of it isn't exactly "prominent" at all). This helps to build up an "authority site", and is good for SEO, of course. And every article I write gets posted there first, which keeps the site "regularly updated" and expands its range of operative keywords.

The two commonest "pre-selling systems" are (i) reviews, and (ii) "personal stories" related to the product. Important to take care, if using the latter, not to make it a "sales page". The vendor's sales page is the sales page. Your site should be the "pre-sell".

There are no silly questions.

(Some answers, on the other hand ... ... :p ).

Certainly! As long as they're really high-quality content. One really high-quality article per week is better (for your long-term income) than 15 unoriginal/spun chunks of backlink-fodder, though.

If you're doing article marketing for Clickbank products, the two things that most determine your long-term income are (i) ensuring that your articles are of sufficiently high quality for them to be syndicated (this leads to genuine residual income from work already done because other people are doing your off-page SEO for you in front of targeted audiences, and you get increasing high quality backlinks and traffic out of it), and (ii) building a list with your opt-in (it's very difficult to make much without this, whatever else you do).

Good luck!
